    CONTEST! Summer Box Office Predictions!

    Alright guys...I'm going to have a little Summer Box Office Predictions Contest...

    Here's what you need to do...

    Predict the Top 10 grossing movies of the summer season (May 1 through August) in order...

    Rank the films 1-10...Points are awarded as follows.

    #1 = 10 points
    #2 = 9 points
    #3 = 8 points
    #4 = 7 points
    #5 = 6 points
    #6 = 5 points
    #7 = 4 points
    #8 = 3 points
    #9 = 2 points
    #10 = 1 point

    If you have the film in your Top 10, but not in the correct spot, you'll receive 2 points for having it in your Top 10. If you have the movie in the Top 10 in the correct spot, you will receive 2 points PLUS the bonus points listed above.

    Also, you get TWO wildcard films...those wild cards are worth .5 points each and if these wildcards happen to be in the Top 10 you are awarded .5 points even though they aren't in your top 10.

    Picks are due no later than May 24th, 2012...then, no more edits can be made to your list, etc.

    Includes The Avengers?

    I have always kind of wanted to do a fantasy box office thing. This is a good idea, but if anyone is interested in doing a draft thing I would be down for that as well.

      Yes, Avengers is game.

      I actually think NOW makes it a little more interesting at the top since Avengers kind of set the pace for DKR.

            I'm not sure what would compel a human being to purchase a ticket to 'Battleship', but then again, I have zero interest in all of the movies listed so far with the exception of 'Dark Shadows', which I have mild interest in.

                            Yes.

                            Something that is guaranteed to keep me out of any movie theater.
